Sprint – Is Prepaid a Force in the Future? – Is Dan Hesse Correct?

Sprint: It's a prepaid world | connectedplanetonline.com

I am an advocate for prepaid services. The prepaid marketplace is not the refuge of the lower economic strata; the prepaid market is where customers go when they wish to have greater control over the fees they pay and services they use. In the 1990s, folks with poor credit ratings used prepaid; there was a stigma about prepaid.

RIM – Blackberry is Crackberry No Longer – We Have Gone through Withdrawal

RIM Tries to Close Gap on Software | online.wsj.com

No one should be surprised that RIM would fire back at detractors and those picking on it, like me. Once an addictive device that never had any trouble finding users, today the Blackberry is having trouble finding customer. The Blackberry is no longer the Crackberry. The iPhone, Motorola’s Droid, HTC’s EVO, HTC’s Nexus, etc., have all served as the methadone for Crackberry addicts.

The iPad – A Hit or Miss?

The iPad Revolution: Naysayers Miss the Big Picture | seekingalpha.com

I have always been a big supporter of the tablet concept. In past GLG postings and my own site’s postings I have sung the praises of the tablet. Of course, when I say “tablet” I am going back about a decade when Microsoft was actively promoting the concept. Now were there other companies that were promoting the tablet concept? I am sure there were but I just cannot recall who they were at this time.

Twitter Rolls Out Ads – The Impact on the Wireless/Landline Carriers and OSS

April 15, 2010

Twitter Rolls Out Ads | online.wsj.com

In the past have opined on Twitter’s valuation; wondering how and why the company’s original valuation was set at $1 Billion. You can read my past postings for those opinions. One of the things I had been wondering is how the site would generate real revenue. In general, I have had the same opinions about social networking and collaboration sites. However, there is a bigger issue for the carriers.
